Proof that the P5 is slow!

We needed proof that the P5 is slow? I feel it in the seat of my pants every day when I press the accelerator and very little happens! BUT, I do have to say that the P5 makes for a very sexy commuter car. I am getting 30 mpg, and a lot of that is spent bumper to bumper each day.

I was going to say the same thing!

The P5 gets your from point A to point B in style. I knew from the getgo that my car wasn't fast, but it was a huge upgrade compared to my first car, the Hyundai Scoupe (although if I had originally gotten the Scoupe turbo, it would have been a downgrade HP wise lmao). I drive a sport auto, and I dont plan on ever getting rid of it. Maybe sometime down the line, when I just want to throw money away, I'll turbo the car to make it a little faster than stock P5's, but in no way do I plan on making the P5 a car for the 1/4 mile, even if I had a manual. But if you think its worth it, so be it. Just try not to make us 5's look bad...MPr5 FTW!

Downshift. (shrug)
 
I'm pretty sure that RSX was NOT a Type S, because you would have been laid in the dust if so. Regardless, apparently they don't know how to drive, or they would have won.

Hey Wes, you really think we could do this in a day (running)?

If we lay it all out ahead of time.. then yes. You need to start sourcing your FPR and voltage clamp. If your thinking of a piggy back to do you fuel instead... well that is maybe more than we can do in a day unless it comes preloaded somehow with the right A/F ratios.

MOCC can do it mang... we have the knowledge and know how. (second)
